Imagine if every university had its own #fediverse server. So for example faculty at a uni in Aotearoa could be @name@staff.uni.ac.nz. This could even be integrated with the uni's institutional repository, so that every time a researcher adds an article to it, a post is automatically added to their account with the title, abstract and link for the article. Could be integrated into the official blogs a uni often provides to faculty and postgrads too.

A somewhat tardy #introduction:

Hi! I'm OpenSexism. I share pieces about #sexism. I also maintain an archive of over 2500 studies, essays, and interviews about #genderbias: https://opensexism.wordpress.com. Please tag me if you would like me to add your piece to this collection

Mostly, I strive to amplify voices, but occasionally, I write as well: https://medium.com/@OpenSexism. I'm particularly fond of my collection on machine learning and gender bias: https://medium.com/@OpenSexism/list/for-humans-learning-machine-learning-415d17c5a501. Also #wikipedia, #academia


Citations in scientific presentations should be readable and easy to follow for the audience even at the back of the room.

I wrote the tiny #rstats package {namedropR} to make this easy to achieve for speakers.

A quick 'How to' is in the thread below.

The logo of the R package "namedropR": a hexagonal icon with dark backgroundand an orane frame. In the center there is the package name, next to a QR code, which encodes the package name.
Next to the logo there is a call to action: reference your literature with style.
